For all you so-called mathematicians, it did not take that long for Calgary and Edmonton to overtake us, so Saskatoon will too. It took Calgary only about 30 years to go from half of our population in the mid 1960s to equalling ours in the mid to late 80s. Edmonton's population had been closer to ours during the 60s, but it did not take very long to overtake us.
The complacency displayed by so many of you, and your nonchalant attitudes are why Winnipeg is in the proverbial toilet. As the last 80 years past, and Winnipeg suffered blow after blow, nobody cared enough to do anything about it. It is embarrassing when we are left in the dust.
